Sometimes songs by an unknown songwriter go viral, such as “Rich Men North of Richmond” about a working class man struggling to get by while rich enjoy their elite moneyed life. And now, another song is going viral: “I’m a Country Man in a Digital Age” which is about a man who wishes for a return to a simpler way of life where people were easy to meet and call. But now he feels the world is moving too fast, and there’s so much hatred and conflict.
He describes how the world is full of smart gadgets, such as phones and robots that can talk, and he worries about a future where AI’s all the rage, but it’s taking away the human touch.

Have you ever wondered why love is so resilient, so that individuals who have experienced the loss of love, often accompanied by intense heartbreak, commonly come back for more?

I’ve been wondering what makes something go viral, so within a day or two everyone knows about it and is talking about it. Often this seems like is one of today’s modern mysteries.
Sometimes the reason is obvious, since an individual or company with plenty of money has pumped millions of dollars into a particular brand or meme, so it appears everywhere, and influencers pick up the item from there. So for awhile it becomes the latest new thing.

Now there’s a whole new way to understand your personality and that of others — by knowing your Dog Type. The system helps you understand your personality type and apply it to better understand and relate to others in your family, with friends, and in your work.
The Dog Type personality system builds on widely recognized ways of characterizing the four main personality types – like Myers-Briggs, the DISC system, and color profiling – but it features some popular dogs that make personality typing even more relatable and fun.

When I think about this past year, the pandemic has actually changed me for the better, though there are many things I have missed.
Like everyone else, I miss the many one-on-one canceled meetings, so I have lost my usual connections with the business community, since I used to go to regular Lafayette, Walnut Creek, Pleasant Hill, and Danville Chambers of Commerce meetings and other networking events.
I have also missed going to conferences, conventions, and happy hours put on by various groups I belong to.
